He's predictable. When he actually get a run play to work, he'll go back to the run for the next two plays. He never mixes things up or hasn't this year. He also throws on first-down way to often. That's one of the reasons why GB is in 3rd and long too much.

There is a difference between playcalling and managing a game or at least I think so. Going for it on fourth down, I agreed with except at the goaline. I do tend to like his aggressive nature. What I don't like is the plays he calls in the situations.

It gets very repetitive. I'd like to see a pass and run mix.

MM's play calling? lol,what a joke! every opening drive he runs on first down which always fails,calls a throw play that isnt tend to go further then 3 yards,and then(if we arent penalized for holding) he calls a predictable throw play that has all our WR's covered for the most part which leads to a sack or incompletion..Now if we tend to get a penalty on 3rd down and its 3rd and long,he calls a stupid draw play which doesnt fool anyone at all...then on certain plays he throws when we should run and runs when we should throw...seriously,even all the crap i just wrote is mostly true,the one thing that pisses me off the most about MM's play calling is his lack to use the TRUE West Coast Offense like he did in 2007...i mean when's the last time we threw those quick slants and let our talented WR's do the work? MM has Rodgers bombing it for some weird reason...Our screen plays have been working alot this year and makes up for a lack of running game yet we rarely use them...Our TE's are open for the most part yet we dont use designed plays to get them in the game as much as we should..This offense has no limits but MM's play calling makes it seem like we have limits...

i don't have problem with his playcalling...of course he makes some mistakes but everyone makes that...

i just think most of times we have problem making adjustment in the halftime...

last week mike nolan threw his defense playcalling to earth in the halftime during patriots - broncos and denver got a new winning defense...

we have to able to change our assett if the game needs that

making adjustments has to do with half time adjustments/play calling...you just unintentionally contradicted yourself...I swear Packer fans have a 90% chance to call plays that MM is going to make...That is not good at all...That means if we knew some basic D schemes,we can counter MM from the comforts of our homes...

Predictability! My better half can be in the kitchen bakin' cookies, and she'll tell me what's coming next!

Ok, I lied, but you know what I mean!

The only aspect of Mccarthy's playcalling I really have a problem with is the fact that he gets away from running the ball far too often. I mean I can't really blame him because he's cut his teeth in the NFL through the passing game and has a beavy of weapons at WR and TE with a great QB but running the ball efficiently would make our Offense even more deadly. I also think Mccarthy goes to the long ball a bit too often, our Offense is at it's best when we're dinking and dunking down the field with those short/medium-range passes, which in turn opens up oppurtunities to hit the long ball as the Defenders come up trying to shut down the intermediate passing game.

I wonder sometimes if McCarthy overthinks things when he calls plays.

If he too readily does the "They think we're going to do X, so let's do Y."

He hasn't watched the iocane powder scene in The Princess Bride. It's not about being smarter....the other guy is smart, too...it's about dominating and kicking the crap out of the other guy. It's not about finesse and , it's about imposing your will and making the other team beat you.

McCarthy's problem may be that he is *too* smart.
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

Zero2Cool (18h) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying
dfosterf (22h) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
dfosterf (22h) : Trade, cut or keep
dfosterf (23h) : that from Jaire
dfosterf (23h) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
Zero2Cool (23h) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
dfosterf (23h) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
Zero2Cool (23h) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
dfosterf (23h) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
dfosterf (23h) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
dfosterf (23h) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
dfosterf (23h) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.
dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move
dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately
Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.
dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.
Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?
Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb
wpr (9-Apr) : yay
Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland
Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'
Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you
Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : The spotting of the ball IS the issue. Not the chain gang.
Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Will there be a tracker on the ball or something?
